Krafty Girls Challenge Number 1 and Blog Hop!!!

Hello and Happy Valentine's Day everyone!!! Welcome to my lil' ol' blog! I am so excited to be a part of the Krafty Girls DT, and I'm super excited that today is the first challenge!!! The challenge is to create a card, 3D item, scrapbook page, etc. that represents the place that you're from/live. I live in California, so this is the card I made to represent some of my favorite things about living here! California has soooo many things to offer (deserts, agriculture, some really big cities), but I chose to represent what I love most: a big redwood tree, the ocean, and (of course) Mickey Mouse because I love going to Disneyland!!! I also added twine around the state, this represents the area of California where I live! Hope you enjoy and I can't wait to see what all of you create over at Krafty Girls!!! :)

First of all, I love the new blog design. It's so personal and original. Second of all, I love the card. Even my husband was telling me how good it was. I love all the detail that you put into it. Even down to the twine placement. I'm so glad to have you on the team.

I love every single element that you added to your card! I lived in California for two years and they were some of the two happiest years of my life! I missed the ocean and the weather so much when I came to AZ. I love your blog makeover too! Everything looks great!!Maribel
